Washington – The Army Reserve and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) formally agreed today to work collaboratively to enhance job opportunities for America’s soldiers and veterans. CBP is the first federal agency to join the Army Reserve’s Employer Partnership.
With an estimated 11,000 jobs opening in CBP, the partnership will aim to help Army Reserve soldiers and veterans find jobs in today’s economy.
“This formal alliance with U.S. Customs and Border Protection presents a remarkable opportunity for our some 10,200 trained and skilled Army Reserve soldiers to potentially achieve their career goals with this federal agency,” said Lt. Gen. Jack C. Stultz, chief, Army Reserve. “This formal partnership also sets the standard among other federal agencies and the Army Reserve.”
“CBP maintains a deep commitment to hiring and supporting the brave men and women who protect and defend America,” said Jayson P. Ahern, acting commissioner, U.S. Customs and Border Protection. “These citizen-soldiers have a well earned reputation as exemplary employees with proven leadership, teamwork, discipline and grace under pressure that are immeasurably valuable to any organization.”
Through the employer partnership, the Army Reserve is collaborating with public and private sector leaders across the country to develop staffing solutions to meet America’s industry demands, tackle the issue of work force preparedness and reinvigorate America’s human talent to remain competitive in the global economy. Since its inception in April 2008, nearly 300 employers have joined the initiative.
The Employer Partnership Initiative establishes a process where employers and the Army Reserve secure and share the talents of trained professionals. Partner employers such as CBP will benefit from access to men and women with Army values, experience and proven leadership skills.
